Dear sir/madam, by ur description the discomfort what u r feeling seems non cardiac type. Since u have suffered heart attack and underwent stenting , its better to get ECG, echo, TMT ( if there are no contraindication). These tests will guide u whether ur discomfort is due to cardiac problem. And once stent is put, u can't fix it. U have undergone stenting one yr back and by this time it would have got fixed ( epithelialised ) to the vessel wall. Don't worry. U will be fine. Just get evaluated once to clear doubt's in your mind.
